With a fantastic depth of flavour to the fat, these beautiful animals are perfect for our premium, top quality bacon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is proper, artisanal bacon, cured and crafted by hand, so we definitely do not inject any water or brine into our bacon (sadly a common practice). Quite the opposite in fact: the naturally lean meat is traditionally dry-cured and hung in our ageing chamber for over a month, during which time it is smoked twice over oak and beech. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis long-duration ageing dries the meat to intensify the flavours which, when combined with a total of 36 hours of smoking, transforms it into a bacon that is wildly different to what you might find in your local supermarket, and if you are a fan of crispy bacon, then a properly aged bacon is what you are looking for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes in two varieties:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAged Smoked Back Bacon: \u003c\/strong\u003eA superbly flavourful traditional back bacon, dry-cured with pepper, juniper and bay with smoke that doesn't overpower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAged Smoked Black Back Bacon: \u003c\/strong\u003eA dark, caramelised and complex bacon, traditionally dry-cured but also marinated in thick, black British molasses before it is air-dried and smoked over oak and beech wood.
